Tuesday

I started making earrings back when I was about 14 years old. My older sister taught me the basics, I remember ruining headpins. In college, I had a corner table littered with wire and beads. I'm 26 now, and I craft on my bed on top of a large sheet of watercolor paper because of the window light.

I'm Korean-American, and I was born and raised in Virginia. I went to school in snowy upstate New York, where I studied Photojournalism. My background is mostly in news photography. I currently work full-time in events and am residing in Jersey City.

Thank you for reading!
